Gillette Venus Embrace Refillable Razors

If you prefer refillable razors for their greener aspect (less plastic to toss), you can't go wrong with the Venus Embrace, our overall winner for refillable razors. (The two razors have the same head, with five blades and a protective moisture strip, but the refillable handle is rubber instead of plastic.) This razor received the highest scores for overall performance and ease of use, and was the best at providing a close shave. Even with the highest number of blades in its category, the Embrace earned a near perfect score for not nicking or irritating testers' skin and testers found it was good at maneuvering around even the most tricky of spots like knees and ankles. It also was the best at removing hair in a single pass — our testers didn't have to shave an area repeatedly with this razor. gillettevenus.com.
